Abstract: This paper presents the experimental and theoretical results of small and medium-scale concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tube (CFFT) columns. A total of 23 CFFT specimens were tested under axial compression ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental and theoretical investigations that study the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (RCFFTs) beams. The experimental program ...

Abstract: Fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) have a thermal expansion in the transverse direction much higher than in the longitudinal direction and also higher than the thermal expansion of hardened concrete. The difference between ...

Abstract: Bridges situated in northern climate regions, which face severe environmental conditions and daily fatigue loading, are prone to accelerated deterioration and corrosion of their components. The application of carbon ...

Abstract: This paper presents the test results of a study on the bond behavior of basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars to concrete. Thirty six concrete cylinders reinforced with BFRP bars and twelve cylinders reinforced with ...

Abstract: This paper experimentally investigates the effect of using the posttensioning (PT) steel strands on the flexural performance of rectangular concrete filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tube (CFFT) beams. Eight PT beams ...
